Line Feed Failure

Recently I have found a weird behavior in Blogger. I press the Enter key when I am typing text in new posts to separate paragraphs. However once my blog post gets published, the carriage return and line feeds disappear. The result is that all my text is in one big blob on my blog.

Now I know a little HTML. So I go back and manually edit my posts. I click on the Edit HTML tab. Then I put in some HTML to force hard breaks between my paragraphs. However I should not have to do all this. Come on Blogger? What are you doing?
